American heavyweight prospect Jared Anderson (12-0, 12 KOs) is considered the most promising fighter in the division, because he is promoted by the best in this business – the promotion company Top Rank and her boss Bob Arum.
Anderson is not so famous for victories in the ring (he has a frankly low level of opposition so far) as the fact that he is the main sparring partner of the current WBC champion British Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs). There were rumors that he even dropped the big guy during sparring.
Prospect surprised opinion.
Considersthat the fight for the title of absolute heavyweight champion between Fury and the holder of all other belts, Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) “is hardly the fight that everyone dreamed of. It’s clear to me that this is not the case.”
There is a huge difference in anthropometry between Usyk and Fury. But not the fact that this is in the hands of the British big man. Everyone remembers how he got in the ring with ex-cruiser from the USA Steve Cunningham and even got knocked down.
Anderson comments: “Pfft… Fury is no longer the same fighter he used to be. He matured and fully formed.
Promoter Eddie Hearn is unsure if the fight for the Absolute will take place: £500m? Fury won’t get close to that much for a fight against Usyk. But the manager of the Ukrainian thinks differently. According to him, the Briton has already agreed to fight with the Ukrainian.
